Some heavy metal vinyl & a new Zenon album.

cool... it's rare that I enjoy a remix, but will keep an eye out for this. Dirty 80's was a fun track back in the day...

Yeah it's like a Buchla Easel in eurorack format. Atonal sonic exploration. I have a bunch of standard synths (Pro 3, Moog Matriarch, DSI Rev 2 & Novation Summit) but want some experimental stuff as well. Arriving shortly is the Erica Synths Techno System & Fusion System II. Because I do music professionally I can claim a lot of tax back on these so it saves me a lot of money.

Just bought myself this little box of fun!

Possibly one of the most beautiful folk/acoustic albums I've ever heard. Most their music is above average atmospheric black metal but this albums has been one of my absolute gems & the vinyl sounds amazing.

Just a heads up that Vader just out out their new album. If you want some quality death thrash from Poland give it a listen. They always deliver if if it's a bit same same.

Yeah most modern pay trance does nothing for me. To be honest my last real interest in the sound was the minimal & early Scandinavian prog style, I even made some here in Australia around the turn of the century and played gigs. After a formula started being required I left. Zenon still gets me purely from a production point of view, and Iboga Tech label I find quite good especially the latest compilation by Alex Boshke. production wise I have no interest in Goa or Psy as experimentation is limited. I prefer to make my techno & IDM stuff performing live with Eurorack. No barriers, no restrictions.

Hi thanks for that. Hadn't heard of them but having listened a bit am tempted to grab a vinyl or two. its a bits lighter than my general listening but within the metal realms I'd suggest checking out: Atra Vetosus Bathory the Nordland albums Borknagar Their last three albums are amazing. Caligula's Horse Esoteric Green Carnation Solstafir Swallow The Sun Vanum Wiegedood Hopefully some of those fit the bill. Esoteric can be a bit of a strain, especially doom metal with tracks going 15 minutes or more. Swallow The Sun put out a three part album called "Songs From The North I, II & III". I bought the vinyl box set, it covers quite a few genres but it's a massive listen totaling 2.5 hours. I thing it's one of the most beautiful metal pieces ever made, even including some folk style songs. Enjoy!!

Iboga just announced the new Beat Bizarre album will get the same vinyl treatment but limited to 100 copies. Hope it lasts a few days so I can grab one!!

On vinyl this is just beautiful. One of the greatest heavy albums ever made. It never gets old, just better.

From my home country:

Mizmor - "Yodh". My go to album to find solace when the world and my mind is overwhelming me. It may seem strange but this music, and his one after this, bring much peace to me. The interview he did on mental health awareness is really wonderful https://www.angrymetalguy.com/mental-health-awareness-interview-with-aln-of-mizmor/

Thanks Tatsu, much respect to a fellow old timer. Yes life has thrown much at me over the years, lot of it death related (inc. my eldest sister suicide) but much hope in my two beautiful children who are some of the kindest humans I've ever met. I spend my time teaching them the importance of giving and community. Whenever we see homeless people for example, as we are able to afford, we always buy them food & water. Some time ones I know well locally I pay for their bedding costs for a week at a homeless hostel... giving is such a good way to achieve peace.

Terribly sorry to hear how many are suffering, whatever version we got it was not as bad as any of this. I hope all recover ok & heal. Much love & respect to all fellow psynews crew.

Waiting for my wife to finish stories with my 7 year old son, then I go do cuddle & lullabies with him. Our younger daughter is already down. While I wait I am listening to Mizmor "Yodh" album on my headphones, and working out how to finish a tune I'm working on with the Sequential Pro 3 for an ambient noise project I'm doing.

Thanks for all the info. will buy for sure then.

Is the "Easter Hymn" track based on christian faith? I'm sorry but due to what happened to me during my childhood I find anything based on christianity, especially preaching, extraordinarily offensive.

To be honest I mostly buy modern vinyl as it sounds much better than any of the old stuff I still own. probably the best quality psy trance I own is the latest Captain Hook album that was pressed so well. It's expensive, but it's probably the best mastering & quality vinyl I own in my entire vinyl collection. Truly an eargasm. it made me feel bitterly disappointed in the lack of quality control at DAT & the Shpongle box sets. They look pretty but when my mate who only masters for vinyl ran them through his testing gear, he said I was well ripped off.
